Thespian Festival Marketing Opportunities

The Thespian Festival is the place to meet over 2,000 high school theatre students and their teachers during an action-packed week of workshops, performances, auditions, and socializing with fellow attendees who all share one thing in common: their love for theatre. The Festival takes place every June at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

There are a number of ways to play a part at this event, including exhibiting, advertising in the Festival program, participating in the auditions program, and sponsorship opportunities.

Exhibiting gives colleges and universities the opportunity to meet with prospective students and watch them perform in various activities throughout the week. Businesses gain another avenue for selling and demonstrating their merchandise to a targeted theatre education audience.

The Festival Auditions Program provides a forum for universities, colleges, and conservatories to recruit some of the best theatre students in the nation. You can join more than forty schools in auditioning hundreds of students who are planning to continue their study of theatre after high school.

We are happy to offer sponsorship opportunities at Festival. Sponsorships extend your presence beyond the exhibit floor and publicize your company name to Festival attendees. This is the perfect way to increase your company’s exposure!

Questions about Festival advertising, auditioning, exhibiting, or sponsorships can be directed to Sarah Walker at (513) 421-3900 or by email.
